More From George Eads

Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

A lot of my friends are gangsters. not like gangsters - well, yeah, all sorts of levels of criminality - but not the types that are preying on innocent people. i have no interest in the type of criminality that has no respect for collateral damage.

Life rises out of death, death rises out of life; in being opposite they yearn to each other, they give birth to each other and are forever reborn. and with them, all is reborn, the flower of the apple tree, the light of the stars. in life is death. in death is rebirth. what then is life without death? life unchanging, everlasting, eternal?-what is it but death-death without rebirth?

By 'coming to terms with life' i mean: the reality of death has become a definite part of my life; my life has, so to speak, been extended by death, by my looking death in the eye and accepting it, by accepting destruction as part of life and no longer wasting my energies on fear of death or the refusal to acknowledge its inevitability. it sounds paradoxical: by excluding death from our life we cannot live a full life, and by admitting death into our life we enlarge and enrich it.
Mean Eye Reality
She had always been a reader… but now she was obsessed. since her discovery of the book hoard downstairs from her job, she’d been caught up in one such collection of people and their doings after the next…the pleasure of this sort of life – bookish, she supposed it might be called, a reading life – had made her isolation into a rich and even subversive thing. she inhabited one consoling or horrifying persona after another…that she was childless and husbandless and poor meant less once she picked up a book. her mistakes disappeared into it. she lived with an invented force.

When i used to teach writing, what i would tell my playwriting students is that while you're writing your plays, you're also writing the playwright. you're developing yourself as a persona, as a public persona. it's going to be partly exposed through the writing itself and partly created by all the paraphernalia that attaches itself to writing. but you aren't simply an invisible being or your own private being at work. you're kind of a public figure, as well.

The only phenomenon with which writing has always been concomitant is the creation of cities and empires, that is the integration of large numbers of individuals into a political system, and their grading into castes or classes. it seems to have favored the exploitation of human beings rather than their enlightenment.

There was no really good true war book during the entire four years of the war. the only true writing that came through during the war was in poetry. one reason for this is that poets are not arrested as quickly as prose writers.

If you feel the urge to write, just lie down and read a book: it will pass.
